Recently, polymer-modified mortar has been studied for proposed use on industrial floors as top layers with thin thicknesses, typically 5~ 15mm. The purpose of this study is to evaluate basic properties of self leveling materials using polymer modifier as kinds of SBR, PAE, SUBA. Superplasticizer and thickener have been included in the mixes to reduce bleeding and drying shrinkage as well as in order to facilitate the workability required. The self leveling materials using four types of polymer dispersion are prepared with polymer-cement ratios which respectively range from 50%, 75%, and were tested for basic characteristics such as adhesion in tension, crack resistance test, rebound test after the preparative tests for unit weight, air content, consistency ratio etc. The results show almost as equal quality as existing commercial industrial flooring when mortar is modified by polymer dispersion. Adhesion in tension of polymer modified mortars using each SBR and PAE emulsion was over 10 kgf/$cm^{2}$. Crack or flaw derived from shrinkage is strongly dependent on the type of polymer dispersion because of each different total solid of polymer. It is judged that polymer modified mortar with self-leveling can be very well suited for Floor-finished.

In this paper, the stability criteria of cosmeceuticals emulsion containing Broussonetia kazinoki extracts was established using the central composite design model. As optimization conditions of the emulsification using the central composite design model, concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer were used as a quantitative factor while emulsion stability index (ESI) and polydispersity index (PDI) were used as a reaction value. The targeted values of ESI and PDI were estimated as over 60% and the minimum number, respectively. Optimized concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer were 3.73 and 3.07 wt%, respectively, from the emulsification optimization based on ESI and PDI values. The estimated reaction values of ESI and PDI were 60% and 0.585, respectively. As concentrations of the emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer increased, the stability of the emulsion prepared tended to increase. The emulsifier was one of the most influential factors for ESI than the emulsion stabilizer. On the other hand, the PDI value was similarly affected by both the emulsion and emulsion stabilizer. The ESI of the cosmeceuticals emulsion prepared under experimental conditions deduced from the central synthesis planning model showed at least about 45% of the stability. However, all of the emulsions were separated after 4 weeks from the initial preparation. When the concentration of the emulsifier was more than 3.72 wt%, the ESI value was over 60%. Also the layer separation rate decreased with increasing the emulsion stabilizer concentration.

A new terpolymer, styrene-butadiene-benzyl methacrylate copolymer (BzMA-SBR) was synthesized by emulsion polymerization. After polymerization, XSBR ionomer was prepared by deprotection of benzyl group of BzMA through hydrolysis with NaOH. Carboxyl group contents can be controlled by changing the initial feed contents of BzMA. Structure of BzMA-SBR and XSBR were characterized by FTIR, $^1H$ NMR and DSC.

Poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(butyl acrylate) PMMA/PBA core-shell composite particles were prepared by the emulsion polymerization of MMA and BA in the presence of different concentration of sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). The following conclusions are drawn from the measured conversion and particle size distribution, morphology, average molecular weight distribution, observation of film formation and particle formation, glass transition temperature and physical properties of polymerized core-shell composition particles for using adhesive binder. When the concentration of 0.03 wt% surfactant, the conversions of PMMA and PBA core polymerization are excellent as 95.8% for PMMA core and 92.3% for PBA core. Core-shell composite particles are obtained 90.0% for PMMA/PBA core-shell composite particles and 89.0% for PMMA/PBA core-shell composite particles. It is considered that the core and shell particles are polymerized to be confirmed FT-IR spectra and average molecular weight measured with a GPC, formation of the composite particles is confirmed by the film formation from normal temperature, and composition of inside and outside of the composite particle is confirmed by TEM photograph. The synthesized polymer has two glass transition temperatures, suggesting that the polymer is composed of core polymer and shell polymer unlike general copolymers. It is considered that each core-shell composite particle can be used as a high functionality adhesion binder by the measurement of tensile strength and elongation.

PBA/PS core-shell polymer nanoparticles were synthesized by two stage emulsion polymerization and hybridized with silica nanoparticle by simple mixing in emulsion state and following precipitation into water/methanol mixture dissolving $Na_2CO_3$. The stress-strain curve revealed that the elastic modulus was increased with increasing molecular weight of polymer and silica weight fraction but decreased with increasing size of core-shell nanoparticle. Especially, there was a rapid increase of elastic modulus with silica blending. As a result, 6 times higher elastic modulus was observed in PBA/PS core-shell baroplastic sample processed at 25$^\circ$C under 13.8 MPa for 5 min by blending with 13.0 wt% of silica nanoparticle.

Zaltoprofen, a propionic acid derivative non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, was known to have powerful inhibitory effects on acute, subacute and chronic inflammation. For initial release and sustained release, the microspheres were prepared using an emulsion-solvent evaporation method like an O/W emulsion method with varying the ratio of zaltoprofen-loaded polyoxalate (POX)/PLGA micropheres. The morphology of the microspheres was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The crystallinity of microspheres was analyzed by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimeter. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to analyze the chemical structure of microspheres. The increased ratio of POX microspheres affected the initial drug release, and the sustained release of drug was influenced by ratio of PLGA microspheres. In this study, the initial release behavior of zaltoprofen can be controlled by the ratio of POX/PLGA microspheres.

Silicone dioxide absorbed polyoxyethylene alkylether sulfate (EU-S133D) surfactant was prepared. Core-shell polymers of inorganic/organic pair, which have both core and shell component, were synthesized by sequential emulsion polymerization using Acrylate as a shell monomer and potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator. We found that when Acrylate core prepared by adding 2.0 wt% EU-S133D, silicone dioxide/Acrylate core-shell polymerization was carried out on the surface of silicone dioxide particle without forming the new silicone dioxide particle during acrylate shell polymerization in the inorganic/organic core-shell polymer preparation. The structure of core-shell polymer were investigated by measuring to the thermal decomposition of polymer composite using thermogravimetric analyzer and morphology of latex by scanning electron microscope(SEM).

Titanium dioxide particles are used as photocatalysts, sensors, adsorbents and catalyst. Core-shell polymers of inorganic/organic pair, which have both core and shell component, were synthesized by sequential emulsion polymerization using Acrylate as a shell monomer and potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator. We found that when Acrylate core prepared by adding 0.5~2.0 wt% EU-S133D, Titanium dioxide / Acrylate core-shell polymerization was carried out on the surface of Titanium dioxide particle without forming the new Titanium dioxide particle during acrylate shell polymerized in the inorganic/organic core-shell polymer preparation. The structure of core-shell polymer were investigated by measuring to the thermal decomposition of polymer composite using thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA) and morphology of latex by scanning electron microscope(SEM).

The core-shell composite particles of inorganic/organic were polymerized by using styrene(St) as a shell monomer and potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator. We studied the effect of core-shell structure of silicone dioxide/styrene in the presence of an anionic surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyoxyethylene alky lether sulfate (EU-S133D). We found that when $SiO_2$ core/PSt shell polymerization was prepared on the surface $SiO_2$ particle, to minimize the coagulation during the shell polymerization, the optimum conditions were at concentration of $2.56{\times}10^{-2}mole/L$ SLS. The structure of core-shell polymer was confirmed by measuring the thermal decomposition of polymer composite using thermogravimetric analyzer and morphology of core-shell polymer particles by transmission electron microscope (TEM).
